If pos laju accept, I post one for you lor

hahahaha
like that i come take one from u..
no need post laju also..
kakaka

i with jitshiong. so we can save up on pos laju. so when can we get our free chinchillas from you?

Anytime in dreamland!

i have 1 doubt... why my chin always come to the front of the cage and act like desparately bitting the cage. he need my attention? does he wants to come out and play? or he wants pellet? dust bath??

i let him out to play 5-10 minutes/ day at night only. too little? im afraid he plays too much and generated too much heat >.<

Most of the chinchillas will do that, mine as well. Yes, they want to come out, but not play is to escape! And because they know that is the way to access to outside of cage, cause you always feed him by using that door. You can give some chew stone or chew wood, that will help a bit. Some will not chew on the cage, but stand infront of the cage when they know you going to feed them something.

Same goes to Nono, but after letting him out for few minutes, he will go in to his cage by himself.

Yes, they are llike small kits some time, you will know them more when you have them longer. Each chinchilla is very unique character, you will learn more in coming days.

SO CUTE~~

schnuppi, my dear boy. : ))

Haiyo! LOVELY! Very cute chin you got there. love the one holding the timothy hay seed. Schbuppi will live for many year to come with you, build him a healthy, happy living enviroment and diet.

haha.. i think schnuppi is too fat!! he eat and eat and eat until so round.. like a furball! .. timothy hay seed is like a treat to him!!! he wants me to hand feed him pellet any rough gauge of weight, a 5 mth old chin should have?

Chin weight have very difference, for a guideline, 5 months should be 500gram. However most of pet shop chin wont reach that guide line.

Oh man im really addicted with Chins ~ i just bought one Chinchilla 3 months ago at Daman Sara pet safari, and it is sooo cute, i am thinking of getting another female chin, unfortunately they re out of stock, is there any one out there got extry female Chin??

Hello,
First, welcome to chin thread.

I can't really see what your chin is eating, is it a piece of hay?

Ya, its the hay or leaf they sold for Chin, he like that more then his food, i bough i different brand of Chinchilla's food for him, and he like only one of it. i think my Chinchilla has weired character, he never like people to hold hi, once we try to grab him, he would just escape,

but when we re immobilize like lye down or sit down, he will approach us and even climb to stand on our shoulder. hmm.. so i wonder how he really feel about us, but he is really cute and soft, i used to let him free run for whole day in my room (only when i am around).

and i am looking for a partner for him now.. lolz cant wait to have second chin~~

O... is hay.... I thought is a taugeh!!

Yes, chinchilla does not like ppl to hold, even some that allow you to hold, it will be just a few seconds or so, of cos they is some special chin who allow you to hold them for up to minutes. Chinchilla is more like a WATCH PET, not a pet to cuddle and hold for long period of time, like dog and cat.

Chinchilla's natural character is their curiosity, that's why when you sit there, they will come to jump on your leg then run off, that is chinchilla!But if you want to catch him, he will take you as the hunter and run away. Meantime you can spend sometime to read the front page info and borwse through here, secondly you MUST show us more photos

Dont be too hurry to go get another chin, take some time to familiar and study of this breed, you will find much more enjoyment when you know what they are and their character.
